welcome!

Hey! My name is Nick Young.

I work on query planning at Databricks.

I studied math and computer science at Brown University, where I helped build courses on databases and applied cryptography.

On the side, I boil broth, mix concoctions, lift objects, hit shuttlecocks, send betas, and blunder queens.
